The last 12 months have been anything but usual. COVID-19 has forced everyone to stay at home creating a surge in virtual activities. With no access to physical stores during much of the last year, consumers have turned to the internet for all of their retail needs. The Office for National Statistics details how online sales in the UK more than doubled over the pandemic in comparison to before March last year (2020).
Companies have been quick to capitalise on this with many stores sending promotional emails daily to tempt people with their wares. Wish is an online store with a questionable reputation for cheap products and long delivery times. This article shows a weekly glimpse into the products that Wish have promoted to me over the last year, with some weird and wonderful suggestions along the way.
